Xiao Linzi gave her a disdainful glance, "A promise from a man of honor is as fast as a horse and whip, running away sneakily is not something a gentleman like me would do! You’re underestimating me!"

Lin Yuan shrugged, although she wasn’t very convinced, she still let go of his hand.

However, no sooner had she released his hand, than the person in question turned into a slippery eel and dashed to the side.

"You little brat!" Lin Yuan shouted and lifted her foot to kick, aiming for a certain sensitive part of someone. Xiao Linzi screamed in alarm and covered that area instinctively with his hands.

Little did he know, Lin Yuan was just feigning a kick, and her hand had already seized him by the collar once again.

"Humph! A man of honor, where did all that solemn swearing go just now?"

Xiao Linzi pouted and whined as she pushed him back down into the chair, "I’d rather run away than eat this disgusting thing! A true gentleman would never eat it!"

"Is that so? Then I have no other choice."

Under Xiao Linzi’s hopeful gaze, Lin Yuan smiled sweetly and continued, "I’ll just have to make sure you can’t be a gentleman!"

As she spoke, a piece of stinky tofu was quickly stuffed into Xiao Linzi’s mouth by her nimble hands.

"Ew!"

Lin Yuan had anticipated that the guy would spit it out, so she quickly covered his mouth with her hand, forcing him not to open his mouth and spit it out.

Helpless, Xiao Linzi could only chew with difficulty under the threatening gaze of Lin Yuan, holding back the discomfort in his stomach and closing his eyes to muster up the courage to chew.

Hmm? Hmm? Hmm?

With countless thoughts flashing through his mind, Xiao Linzi suddenly opened his eyes wide, as if they were about to pop out, and his face flushed red.

Xiao Linzi’s condition had already shocked Xiao Liuzi and the others speechless: Big brother, is this, is this because of being smoked to death!

Oh, Big brother, rest assured, don’t worry about us, we will surely live well, we’ll definitely not repeat your mistakes, absolutely won’t get close to that stinky stuff!

As the others held their heads and sobbed, a dramatic scene unfolded that shocked everyone’s eyes.

Xiao Linzi excitedly waved his hands, pointing first at himself, then at the stinky tofu on the table, all the while beckoning to Xiao Liuzi and the others who were staying away.

And his mouth, Lin Yuan had already removed her hand that was covering it, so why wasn’t he opening his mouth to spit out the stinky stuff?

Could it be that his brain had been dulled by the smell, turning him into an idiot?

"Wuwu, big brother, you were so smart and capable, and now you’ve turned into an idiot! You might as well have died from the fumes! Wuwu." Xiao Liuzi cried, tears and snot streaming down his face.

"What! Asking for a beating!"

Xiao Linzi slapped Xiao Liuzi on the head with disdain, "Don’t curse your big brother! Go, eat that!"

"Ah?" Xiao Liuzi’s mouth hung open wide enough to fit a large duck egg, and tears instantly began to flow again, becoming more torrential by the second, "Big brother, I know I was wrong, I shouldn’t have wished you became dumb! Big brother, please spare me, don’t make me eat shit, I beg you, wuwu, don’t make me eat, don’t make me eat, ah!

Ah! Ah! Mm! It’s really tasty, it’s really good, big brother! "

Xiao Linzi arrogantly raised his chin, what’s this about ’big brother being really tasty’? It’s the stinky tofu that’s really tasty!

That’s the thing about stinky tofu; it smells foul but tastes delicious, the stinkier it smells, the better it tastes.

Originally, she was worried that Lao Fan would also react like Xiao Linzi and the others, finding the dish hard to accept. But she clearly underestimated someone’s foodie nature.

"Yah yah yah! Lass! You actually made me eat shit!

" Lao Fan exploded with rage, but it was just a few complaints, then under someone’s astonished eyes, he stuffed the smelly stuff into his mouth, "This old man has eaten everything in his life, sweet, sour, spicy, and fragrant, but really never something this stinky! Come on, let the old man have a taste!"

No sooner had he tasted it than all the stinky tofu Lin Yuan brought to Fuman Building was devoured by him. If Lin Yuan hadn’t quickly saved a few pieces, Shopkeeper Liu and the chefs might not have even gotten to try it.

However, even though the stinky tofu tasted good, it wasn’t guaranteed that the customers would take to it. After all, the smell was just too hard for some to accept.

Lao Fan didn’t care about the business, but Shopkeeper Liu and the chefs certainly did. They admitted that this thing would definitely be a big hit once it went on sale like dried bean curd and other items, but getting customers to accept it would require an extremely lengthy process.
